Friday 1st December 2006   From 5.30pm onwards  Heacham High Street   Stella of Heacham-On-Line would like to thank Malcolm who made this feature possible (and a thank you also goes to Rob Topliss the final 3 photos)   Despite the threat of rain, Heacham's High Street was packed with hordes of eager Christmas shoppers getting into the spirit of things early in December.  Pat Terry and her willing helpers were relieved that the weather generally held up for most of the evening but things quietened down slightly earlier than usual as the onset of heavier rain beckoned. Congratulations to Pat and everyone who took part - the evening was a resounding success and was organised in less than 8 weeks. The Christmas Card Competition had a fantastic number of entries.  The two Davids had a hard task deciding who should win.  As the majority were entered in their school years and not age groups, prizes have been awarded accordingly. Winners of the Christmas Card Competition were:     NURSERY Ryley Belton John Bristow YEAR 3 Jordan Myhill Benjamin Bridges     RECEPTION Courtney Feeney Hayden Jackson YEAR 4 Ruby Aylmer Holly Morgan     YEAR 1 Tanya Shepherdson Callum Frary YEAR 5 Victoria Hoy Hannah Phillips     YEAR 2 Sian Playford George Hunt YEAR 6 Holly Rice Lorcan Forde       Joining in the fun A dapper John Wallis makes someone happy!
